Junctioning longitudinally adjacent PTVs with Helical TomoTherapy [PDF]

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, 2010
Irradiation of longitudinally adjacent PTVs with Helical TomoTherapy (HT) may be clinically necessary, for example in treating a recurrent PTV adjacent to a previously‐treated volume. In this work, the parameters which influence the cumulative dose distribution resulting from treating longitudinally adjacent PTVs are examined, including field width ...
